March 12, 2010 - Disney on Ice...again :)

March 12, 2010 - Thanks to Aunt Dani, we have been able to go to Disney on Ice multiple times. It never disappoints for the little ones. Tylar was ready....

When we saw Mater, Sally, and Ramone....
...we were enjoying it.

When Lightening McQueen came in....

....we were intrigued.

When we saw Sally up close.....

....she thought it was neat.

When we saw Lightening McQueen upclose....

...Aniston likey!

As soon as we saw/heard Ariel....

...Tylar started singing along, "Aaaaaah, aaaaahhh, aaaaaAaaAaaAaaaah!"

When Simba was born....

Aniston was thrilled!

When we saw the Lion King trio.....

...she smiled!

Like I said before, we have gone to Disney on Ice several times thanks to AuntDani. We have never bought anything there because I choose to send my girls to a fine university someday rather than spend a years worth tuition on a spinning princess wand. Aunt Dani surprised the girls with an overwhelming amount of icee in an awesome tinkerbell cup. The girls loved the cups and the icee got all over the floor:). Thanks Aunt Dani for your never-ending willingness to give! We love you!

The second half of the show was all about Tinkerbell. By this point, Tylar wanted her shoes off and wanted to sit in the melting icee all over the floor.

To avoid a scene, I left early with Tylar while Austin and Aniston stayed to finish the show. When they came out Aniston told me I missed everything (10 minutes), but somehow I feel okay about that :) All in all, we had a great time!

March 9, 2010 - The Witch and the Cat

March 9, 2010 - Aniston and Tylar were playing dress up before bed. Aniston said she was a witch and Tylar was a cat....as if we needed to be told. The hats and jackets were necessary for them to dance to "Single Ladies" a bit later. We love these funny, funny girls!

March 8, 2010 - Good Morning....kind of

March 6, 2010 - Happy Birthday Mommy!

March 6, 2010 - I'm 28...sheesh! I had a fantastic birthday! Upon arriving home from a killer/wonderful athletic conditioning pilates class, this is what I found...Aussie and my girls making birthday cards. I am so blessed!
I am so blessed to have my wonderful, wonderful Aussie and my beautiful, funny girls!

Oh yes, Austin and I celebrated our 6 year wedding anniversary yesterday...I love, love, love MY AUSTIN! I am so grateful he wanted to marry me!

March 2, 2010 - It was WARM enough for the Zoo...hooray!

March 2, 2010 - The temperature was around 56 degrees so I figured we wouldn't freeze if we went to the zoo. I was so right! It was glorious to be outside, enjoying the animals and being outside, and did I mention...being outside! I love seasons, but I also love it when seasons change. Winter was nice, the snow was beautiful, but I am ready for Spring to arrive. I don't normally take pictures when we go to the zoo, because we go quite often, but seeing as it was our first trip of the season, here you go...... The baby elephant is still cute and "little."

See the lynx and it's antennas. The most beloved tiger statues. Like I said, we go to the zoo quite often, but we NEVER miss a chance to sit on the tigers'.

We didn't stay too long with the giraffes because Aniston thought it was too stinky. She was pretty grossed out that their poop was on the floor....gross!

Normally I don't take pictures of just the animals, because 20 years from now I don't want to have "memories" of the animals, but this time we got to see the sloth up close. It was pretty cool. It didn't "do" anything, just hung on to the tree, but still...I thought it was neat. And so concludes our first trip of the year to the zoo. Welcome back spring, we have missed you!

February 25, 2010 - Just Hanging Out and Reading

February 25, 2010 - The girls love to read! While I was getting ready I was able to sneak a couple pictures of this cutemoment without them noticing.

Here they are just being silly.....Tylar, the clothes-less wonder.

The many faces of Tylar....

February 14, 2010 - Happy Valentines Day!

February 14, 2010 - Today is love day! I, personally, am not a big fan of Valentines Day. I'm not even sure why. I think you should tell those you love that you love them everyday. You should do special things to show them you love them all the time. Austin is a romantic, so I'm not sure where my aversion to Valentine's Day originated. He's always done cute/loving things for me.....all year round, not just on Valentines Day. Now I am rambling. Anyhow, below you can see that Aniston was being very loving to blue bear.

Aniston was also showing quite a bit of love towards the new swing set!

Tylar LOVES to put shoes in a line. I don't know why, but I think it is the cutest thing.

February 13, 2010

February 13, 2010 - Swinging is the best! This is what we got Aniston (and Tylar....and Mommy :)) for her birthday. Even though it wasn't that warm, the girls wanted to swing and swing and swing!

Daddy and his many helpers putting the swingset together.

Tylar is R.E.A.D.Y to go outside! Goodbye winter!
